What is Dead Goat Polo?
Dead Goat Polo is a sport in which armies of up to 200 men gather on the weekends to duke it out in a battle for the carcass of a goat. Their array of weaponry includes whips and fists, and the pride of their clan hangs in the balance. They take to the field of choice and battle for the goat skin. Only one rule, really: No guns, no knives, and no swearing.
